I Am a Goodwill Convert


Who says I'm not a clothes horse?

Oh. I did. Here. But now that the vest doesn't fit so well over the growing-but-not-yet-obviously-pregnant-so-I'm-just-fat belly, AND I still have to wear clothes (bummer), I actually had to find some that will fit for the next month or so, before I'm into the Elasticized Maternity Pants

(Neigh)

Oh yeah, and the kids grew some too.

So - because this cheapskate won't spent $60 when $15 will do - I once again supressed my dislike of other people's used clothing (ick) and found these:



Yes. They were blurry when I found them.

Mr - with no pregnant belly to hide, found this:


He was very proud.

Miss did not find these. She was not invited to the Secondhand Smorgasbord and Cheapskate Extravaganza, because - only sometimes - I enjoy concentrating for longer than eighteen seconds.

Crazy, I know.


Jr, of course (poor second baby), got shafted. He got super awesome, really cool, I-wish-they-made-them-in-my-size-but-then-they-wouldn't-be-cute shoes that don't fit.


Guilty, I used some of my Swagbucks to buy him these, for which I shelled out only $5.38 in real money.


Me like.

And now daycare can't disapprove of me and my shoeless child anymore.

The Mrs for the win!

(If this sounds - and looks - familiar, it's because its the story of our secondhand shopping trip from the end of June, just different. Hint: that one was funnier.)
